New Delhi. The Congress on Thursday took a dig at outgoing Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling him “one-third Prime Minister” and asked him to tell whether he will fulfill the promise of special state status for Andhra Pradesh and Bihar? After this Lok Sabha election, Janata Dal (United) and Telugu Desam Party will have an important role in the National Democratic Alliance. Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh posted on ‘X’, “It is being repeatedly claimed that now Modi 3.0 government will be formed. The truth is that this time, Modi will form a one-third government.”
He said, “Our 4 questions to Modi ji, who is going to become the Prime Minister for one-third of the time: On 30 April 2014, in the holy city of Tirupati, you had promised to give special status to Andhra Pradesh. Will that promise be fulfilled now?” Ramesh asked, will you stop the privatization of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant now? He also asked, “Will you fulfill your 2014 election promise and the 10-year-old demand of your ally Nitish Kumar by giving special state status to Bihar? Do you promise to conduct caste census in the entire country like Bihar?”
